start/stop audio

Let me take a look and I will get back to you. Thanks.

Try using this example. It reuses the sound tag by playing with object variables derived from the play action:


<wire>
<main>
<image name="sound" alias="SOUND" source="button.back.png" xpos="100" ypos="100" onclickup="stop-music"/>
</main>

<actions>
<action name="init" oninit="yes">
<play action="clip" _action="play" _source="baseball1" _type="m4a" />
</action>

<action name="clip">
<sound action="_action" source="_source" type="_type"/>
<play action="clip" _action="_action" _source="baseball1" _type="m4a" delay="3" />
</action>
<action name="clip-stop">
<sound action="_action" source="_source" type="_type"/>
</action>
<action name="stop-music">
<play action="clip" _action="stop" _source="baseball1" _type="m4a" />
<alert message="STOP"/>
</action>

</actions>
</wire>


Thank Ian!

It works now for one WIRE file. But when I'm trying to close subwire and start music in main wire, fusebox crushes. I think it can't find "start-music" action when returning from subwire. Here is the code:

from main.wire:


<main>
<image name="subwire" alias="SUB" source="images/click.png" xpos="100" ypos="100" onclickup="SCENE1"/>

<include name="scene" alias="SCENE" width="100%" height="100%" background="#000000" alpha="0"></include>

</main>
<actions>
<action name="initialize" oninit="yes">
<play action="start-music" />
<action>

<action name="music">
<sound action="_action" source="_source" type="_type" />
<play action="music" _action="_action" _source="_source" _type="_type" delay="125" />
</action>
<action name="stop-music">
<play action="music" _action="stop" _source="sound/s1_music" _type="mp3" />
</action>
<action name="start-music">
<play action="music" _action="start" _source="sound/s1_music" _type="mp3" />
</action>

<action name="SCENE1">
<play action="stop-music" />
<load file="scene1.wire" wirename="scene1" target="SCENE" />
<alpha value="1" time=".5" target="SCENE" />
</action>

<action name="CLOSE-SCENE1">
<sync>
<unload delay=".1" />
<alpha value="0" time=".5" />
</sync>
</action>

</actions>



for subwiere scene1.wire:


<main>
<image name="mainwire" alias="MAIN" source="images/click.png" xpos="100" ypos="100" onclickup="MAINWIRE"/>

</main>
<actions>

<action name="MAINWIRE">
<play action="CLOSE-SCENE1" superwire="yes" target="../.." />
</action>

</actions>


if I put "play action="start-music" " somewhere in CLOSE-SCENE1 or MAINWIRE actions, fusebox crushes when executing it.

on your subwire try adding a play action like this:

<action name="MAINWIRE">
<play action="START-MUSIC" superwire="yes" target="../.." />
<play action="CLOSE-SCENE1" superwire="yes" target="../.." />
</action>


It doesn't help. fusebox crushes..

Did you put your close scene action second?

Yes Ian, I did exactly as you wrote. I'll try to move content from main wire to subwire and use main wire only for load and unload subwires. I'll inform about results.

play/stop audio in subwire works fine. no option for pause, but I hope will be available in feature versions of WIRE. start/stop audio from subwire to main wire is not working.

Double check your target path. If it is still not working, perhaps you could invite me as a collaborator to take a look at the code?

Ian, you are collaborator already

I removed "superwire" parameter from "play" action and now it works fine:

<action name="MAINWIRE">
<play action="start-music" target="../.."/>
<play action="CLOSE" target="../.." />
</action>


That's strange. I'm using "superwire" parameters in my other multiwire app and it works.

Well that is certainly strange. I am going to recreate this and test it outside of fusebox. I am wondering if it will break as a stand alone app.
